Silver cations are reduced.
Fe + 3AgNO3 ==> Fe(NO3)3 plus 3Ag The oxidation number of Ag in AgNO3 (on the left side) is 1+ and in Ag (on the right side), it is zero. Thus, in this reaction, silver (Ag) has been reduced.
Your reaction is AgNO3 + Na ==> NaNO3 + AgIn this reaction Ag goes from 1+ to zero, so it has been reduced. Na goes from zero to 1+ so it has been oxidized.

Fe + 3AgNO3 ==> Fe(NO3)3 plus 3Ag The oxidation number of Ag in AgNO3 (on the left side) is 1+ and in Ag (on the right side), it is zero. Thus, in this reaction, silver (Ag) has been reduced.
Sodium (Na) has been reduced.
Your reaction is AgNO3 + Na ==> NaNO3 + AgIn this reaction Ag goes from 1+ to zero, so it has been reduced. Na goes from zero to 1+ so it has been oxidized.
